"at night?"

"How do you guide you at night?"

Several military sub-district commanders had never seen night cannons and asked.

Wang Ye said: "It's very simple. Our Wolf Warrior Squadron can divide the target area in advance and divide it into several calibration areas through two coordinates vertically and horizontally."

"Let's help the regiment artillery choose the artillery position."

"Then the shooting elements in each area are measured from the artillery positions."

"In this way, as long as the artillery regiment enters the position, they can shoot the various elements we have calibrated in advance and carry out large-scale artillery bombardment on the corresponding areas."

"Of course, except for the cover shelling,"

“Our Wolf Warrior Squadron can also provide precise guidance,”

"Prepare precise shelling of the Japanese assembly ground or fire point in the target area."

Wang Ye also tasted the sweetness from the Niangzi Pass Battle. He guided the artillery to carry out precise strikes and doubled his lethality. Now with the Walkie-Telephone, it is even more powerful.

In a word, the use of artillery fire in the mobile column has been at the forefront of the times.

Not to mention whether it can be compared with European military powers, it is undoubtedly more advanced than the Japanese army in Asia. From the perspective of military philosophy alone, it is a dimensionality reduction strike.

Several brigade commanders looked at each other.

If this is the case, the combat efficiency of artillery can be greatly improved.

One artillery regiment may exert the lethality of two or even three artillery regiments.

Because of the preparation time of artillery, the adjustment time of shooting elements can be greatly shortened, which in turn can greatly increase the firing speed of artillery.

If the mobile column really has the firepower of three artillery regiments,

Is there any problem in breaking through the blockade line in a certain direction of the Japanese army?

Of course it's no problem! It's just a piece of cake!

Wang Ye said again: "Dear leaders, the result of the war chess is absolutely fine."

"In short, in one sentence, as long as the Japanese army participates in the mobilization force does not exceed 60,000, our mobile column can break through the Japanese army's blockade line."

"As for the Japanese army's forces involved in the sweep, it is possible that the number of troops exceeds 60,000?"

"I don't think this possibility is said to be none, but it won't exceed one percent."

"After all, the North China Front Army's troops are already short of strength, so it is impossible to concentrate too many troops in a combat area of ​​Taihang Mountain."

"Otherwise, will he want other defense areas?"

A brigade commander asked: "Will Japan send more reinforcements from the local area to Shanxi?"

Wang Ye said: "The little Japanese will definitely send additional reinforcements from the local area to Shanxi, but the number will not be too large. At best, it is only about one division."

The teacher asked, "How can I see it?"

Wang Ye said: "Because the reserves of Japanese soldiers are almost exhausted."

"Hmm?" The leaders present looked at each other, disbelief, "Have the little Japanese soldiers exhausted?"

"No, it's not that the source of troops is exhausted." Wang Ye waved his hand and said, "It's that the source of reserve troops has exhausted."

A division commander asked: "Is there any difference between the exhaustion of soldiers and the exhaustion of reserve soldiers?"

"There is a difference," Wang Ye said. "Reserve service refers to young people of appropriate age aged 18 to 25. Because the number of troops is limited, they cannot enlist in the army, so they can only transfer to the reserve service."

"But the military training has never been lost, and military literacy is not much worse than that of the Japanese who joined the army."

"These Japanese devils are young and strong, deeply poisoned by the jun nationalist thought and have no family drag. They have extremely firm fighting will, so they have extremely strong combat power."

"Reserve service refers to the rural soldiers aged 25 to 60."

"These soldiers in the village have not only passed their prime, but also have family burdens. Many of them have been infected with bad habits such as alcoholism, gambling, and gangs. Their fighting will is much weaker, and therefore their combat effectiveness is much lower."

"There are many second-class privates in their thirties among the 9th Brigade that we annihilated this time."

"These are the reserve soldiers. The Japanese government has even begun to recruit reserve soldiers with low combat effectiveness, which is enough to show that their reserve soldiers have dried up."

"So even if the Japanese base camp goes to Shanxi, there will be no more troops."

"I'm sure that a division is already the limit to increasing troops."

After listening to Wang Ye's analysis, the boss couldn't help but look at the brigade commander again, thinking that this is really a talent. Just from the few Japanese in their thirties, they could infer so much useful information!

This intelligence comparison and analysis ability can work on the intelligence front.

Wang Ye said again: "So now, we can discuss the next step."

"Next step?" Another brigade commander said in confusion, "What else is there to discuss in the next action? Since the mobile column can break through the blockade line, it must be to continue to expand the gap, then defend the two wings, and ensure that the headquarters and the main force of the military region break through the gap, and the mobile column will follow after completing the cover mission."

"This is just a regular way of playing," Wang Ye said, "I also have an unconventional way of playing."

"Unconventional playing style?" The boss, the commander and the deputy chief of staff looked at each other and asked, "What kind of playing style?"

Wang Ye left the sand table, walked to the big map posted on the wall, pointed to the location of Taiyuan on the map and said, "This unconventional way of playing is to hit Taiyuan."

"What, fight Taiyuan?"

Almost the leaders present were shocked when they heard this.

However, if Li Yunlong was present, he would probably agree.

After a while, the teacher said, "Xiao Wang, fighting Taiyuan is not a joke."

Wang Ye said: "Teacher, don't worry, the attack on Taiyuan is not really about attacking Taiyuan, but just to force Yoshio Shinozuka to transfer troops from the Taihang base to Taiyuan."

The teacher said, "You mean to surrounded Wei and save Zhao?"

"Yes, surround Wei and save Zhao." Wang Ye said, "As long as the mobile column shows strong offensive ability and poses to attack Taiyuan, Yoshio Shinozuka will have to consider the possibility of Taiyuan being taken down by us."

"So to be safe, Yoshio Shinozuka can only withdraw troops from the Taihang base."

"Because the consequences of Taiyuan's fall, it is not something that Shinozuka Yoshio can afford."

Taiyuan is not only the headquarters of the 1st Army Command, but also gathers the manpower and material resources of a province in Shanxi.

Especially in Taiyuan, there is an arsenal that can produce Japanese equipment. Once this arsenal falls into the hands of the Eighth Route Army, the Eighth Route Army will obtain a large amount of weapons and equipment overnight.

This consequence cannot be compensated even if the Taihang base is pacified.

Therefore, once there is danger in Taiyuan, Yoshio Shinozuka will definitely have to return to his post to save himself.

A brigade commander asked: "What if the Japanese troops were divided into two groups? Half of them returned to Taiyuan, and half continued to stay in the Taihang base to launch a mobilization?"

"That would be great."

Wang Ye said: "The Japanese wanted to occupy both ends, but in the end they could only lose both ends."

The brigade commander was stunned when he heard this, and then he suddenly realized that if half of his troops could launch a mobilization operation against the Taihang base, the Japanese would not have to call so many soldiers at the beginning.

The brigade commander said: "What if Yoshio Shinozuka dispatched troops from southern Shanxi to help?"

Wang Ye said: "It's too far to transfer troops from southern Shanxi, and it takes a long time."

He paused and said, "More importantly, there may be no soldiers to adjust in southern Shanxi."

"How is this possible?" a leader questioned, "Three Japanese divisions in southern Jin may be stationed."

Wang Ye said: "If Yoshio Shinozuka wants to gather 60,000 troops to sweep our Taihang base, at least one and a half divisions must be drawn from southern Shanxi to head north."

"Then, there are only one and a half divisions left in southern Shanxi."

"If troops are drawn from southern Shanxi again, how many troops should be drawn?"

"If you draw too much, it's useless. If you draw too much, there will be a Central Army on Zhongtiao Mountain."

The boss said: "If you want to play according to your style, don't you have to leave the headquarters and the main force of the Taihang Military Region? Just stick to the base and wait for Yoshio Shinozuka to withdraw his troops?"

Wang Ye smiled and said, "It's for this to fight Taiyuan."

After saying this, he said, "But this unconventional style of playing also has risks."

The brigade commander said, "Xiao Wang, are you saying that Yoshio Shinozuka has prepared in advance?"

"Yes." Wang Ye said, "If Yoshio Shinozuka is prepared in advance, we will be in a difficult situation."

The boss said: "Then make an anti-sweeping plan according to the conventional playing method, then follow this unconventional playing method, and make another combat plan, and prepare! Then decide according to the situation."

Wang Ye said: "Then make three plans."

"Well, three plans?" the commander asked in surprise, "What's the other plan?"

Wang Ye said: "The unconventional and conventional playing styles mentioned just now have the least loss but the risk is higher, and the other has a greater loss but the risk is lowest. In addition to these two playing styles, there is also a compromise playing style."

"The compromise method is that after the mobile column breaks through the blockade line, it does not go to Taiyuan, but returns to attack the Japanese sweeping troops, forcing the Japanese army to shrink its forces to fight the decisive battle with our mobile column."

"And then, lead the Japanese sweeping troops away from the Taiyuan base."

"In this way, the headquarters and the main force of the military region do not need to evacuate."

What Wang Ye said is actually the way of playing mobile warfare. According to the historical process, the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army will not evolve from guerrilla warfare to mobile warfare until 1945, then from small-scale mobile warfare to large-scale mobile warfare, and finally evolve to the final form of warfare: a large-scale decisive battle in depth!

But now the mobile warfare is going to be ahead of schedule.
To be continued...
